I had my new patient appointment at East Paulding Primary Care Center in Hiram yesterday with Glenda Summerville. She and I went over my medical and medication history thoroughly. She was so caring and very interested in helping me to maintain good health. She specializes in diabetes and recommended me to the support group that she has once a month. I am so relieved to have found a place where I can go and have total faith in the care I will receive. The facility is bright and spacious. The staff that I met were courteous and friendly. All in all, I am very satisfied.

I have never had any issues with this med facility. I think the appointment co books the appointments to close together, so you end up having a huge wait. They should leave more open slots for when people get sick. but then that's not the doctors fault.
The staff has always been polite and helpful. The facility is pleasant. My son's doctors have always been very kind to them. No problems.

The group of doctors practicing at East Paulding Primary Care Center exploited questionable behavior and diagnosing procedures. Basically, when one of those doctors proposed a diagnosis, then the others simply follow suit without proper testing.

More specifically, several doctors in this care center collaborated and diagnosed our family member with Crohn's Disease and stated that she would have a continued life full of an array of Crohn's medications and worsening problems. That diagnosis was made after our family pleaded with each and every one of those doctors to please check for appendicitis. Each doctor at the East Paulding Primary Care center refused our family's request.

After a years' worth of frustration in working with these Paulding County physicians, we made one trip to an area university hospital where the diagnosis was immediately and correctly made as CHRONIC APPENDICITIS. ALLof the doctors at East Paulding Primary Care Center explicitly insisted that Chronic Appendicitis did not exist; thus, our family suffered the consequences.

Because the physicians at EPPCC refused to check for appendicitis, that nasty appendix sat atop a young teen's reproductive organs and destroyed them resulting in surgeries and permanent, painful adhesions.

Needless to say, we do not recommend East Paulding Primary Care Center or any affiliated doctors OR hospitals.

Pros: Absolutely None

Cons: Ignored family concerns and requests, many more problems than we can list here

I see both Dr. Tharpe and Shannon his assistant and they have treated me so well. When I have been really sick, they even call to check on my progress and see if there is anything I need. My daughter goes to a different doctor in the group and she really like him as well.

I found Dr. Tharpe through the emergency room in 1996 and he has been extremely professional and very knowledgable in all areas of medicine for my needs. Great group and I am blessed to have them as my doctors. The office is very caring and professional, helpful and courteous. Kudos to the entire group.
